Scott's Oyster Bar bombing

The Scott's Oyster Bar bombing occurred on 12 November 1975 when the Provisional IRA bombed a seafood restaurant on Mount Street in London, England. The attack followed the Caterham Arms pub bombing, which marked the start of "Phase Two" of the IRA's bombing campaign on mainland Britain. A five-pound, shrapnel-laced bomb was thrown into the bar, killing one and injuring 15. The perpetrators were subsequently tracked down to Balcombe Street and forced to surrender after a week-long siege.
